Bipartisanship Is for Weaklings

And here are two of them, so terrified of the Republicans who fucking LOST the House, the Senate, and the White House, that they are going to piss away the opportunity to put this nation back on the path of progress.

Get rid of these losers and put some leadership in Congress that understands what having power means. If there is one thing that should have been learned in the last eight years is that you do not bargain with ideological extremists--you destroy them.

But the Democratic Party, co-opted by money as easily as the Republicans (there's really just one party--the party of power over YOU), will fail to create a comprehensive health care system (read single-payer, eliminating insurance companies), will fail to end the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan (defense industry lobbyists, anyone), and will be as effective at turning the economy around as a eunuch at an orgy is at knocking up the entire harem. Pelosi and Reid have spent so much of their integrity and capital gaining the power they now relish, that they will do nothing that might, even in the remotest sense, require them to go to the mat with the opposition.

And that makes them the opposition. They're worthless. Dump 'em.

And meanwhile, Dr. Howard Dean, who more than anyone deserves credit for restoring a Democratic majority, is totally dissed by the Obama team.

I thought there was change in the air. But it's just the same old stink of chickenshit and bullshit.

I agree, Reid and Pelosi are an ineffecive pair and, well, completely LAME. They give Dems a bad name, can Obama remove them?

He can certainly put pressure on the Dem's leadership to replace them with people who understand power.

Thanks for the comment!
